    Who will be next for Deontay Wilder? I thought it was going to be Fury but it looks like Fury wants the Klitschko fight. Povetkin is fighting Perez, So who will it be? Not many decent opponents out there...

    He will get an optional fight before that gets settled. Probably a fighter in the lower end of the WBC rankings.

    Cue the can. I never rated Stiverne personally and find it nothing amazing to give him the run-around with the superior athleticism and reach.

    Props to Deontay though for proving the haters wrong and having an impeccable drive and attitude.

    I'd like to see him take out the old-but-still-'names' in the div and sharpening up before taking on the dangerous challenges.

    Maybe Chisora, Areola, Chagayev etc next

    Chagaev's fighting Lucas Browne next so it won't be him. You're right though it could be Chisora or Arreola. They're not bad opponents though.

    No not bad, but perfect since they are 'names' but would certainly be heavy under-dogs. I'm thinking take on some of those Wlad left-overs since they have credibility for getting a title shot but are not a real threat as such.

    Put him in there with Arreola or Ruiz Jr.

    I hope the Fury fight gets made too.

    He will slip in a non-mandatory in and they will be looking for a reliable loser I would think.
